Property for rent in Pisa Province Tuscany-Florence Tuscany Italy.
The 210 meter (about 2,260sq ft) red villa has two floors: On the ground floor, at the entrance, there is a sunny veranda and a dual sitting-dining room with a fireplace and satellite TV hidden within a beautiful antique armoire, sprawling sofas, a library well-stocked with books and magazines, a DVD player and Persian rug. On the right is a large and beautiful eat-in kitchen, very well equipped with a dish washer, oven, microwave, toaster, mixer, American coffee machine,etc. This is a kitchen for both serious cooks and toast makers alike and opens directly onto an outdoor eating area shaded by a pergola. There is also a BBQ that can be used to prepare meals for al fresco dining overlooking a romantic Tuscan landscape.You will find 4 beautiful rooms that can either be made up as twin or double. The upper floor is made from large wood boards, and each room has a telephone, with direct dial and intercom, shoe closet and a ceiling fan which, due to the elevation (about 180,000 m or 590,551 ft above sea level) and thick walls of the villa, are sufficient to keep you cool in all but the most appalling heat waves. The master bedroom is the largest room and has also a pull out sofa which can be used as a third bed. There are 2 bathrooms, each with a large walk-in shower. Everything in the house is very functional (there is even a central vacuum) but at the same time the owners have done a painstaking job, furnishing the house with beautiful art and antiques. It has also been carefully made child friendly. From the roof, which is a terrace, you will be delighted with the very beautiful sight of the surrounding hills, some topped with ancient villages. Volterra is the most impressive.

Pisa Province Area Information
Fattoria di Monti is a farm of 300 hectares (600 acres) located in the beautiful southern hills of Pisa in the Volterra region. Gentle hills and open valleys combine with a mild climate that never experiences spring frost and benefits from the Mediterranean breeze. The sea that used to cover this region in ancient times left some areas rich in minerals, fossils and marine sediments. The average altitude is 150 meters with very open terrain. Here the owners raise cattle, "il mucco Pisano", horses, and grow wheat and hay. Many old olive trees are cultivated in the traditional way and the owners pay particular attention to producing the best possible quality 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil.In 2006 a little vineyard of one acre was planted with old Sangiovese grapes and soon the first wine will be produced. The surrounding landscape is made up of gently rolling hills carpeted with verdant fields between wooded areas where the livestock grazes and in winter, hunters and their hunting dogs.The gardens and grounds around the villa are beautiful.The swimming pool is private for our guests and has the most amazing views and a black interior which creates a mirror-like appearance: fabulous cypress trees & vibrant blue skies reflect beautifully . It is 5m x 10 m
Extra virgin olive oil is produced locally in our farm and on your request we will be glad to organize olive oil tasting with the different variety we produce. During the Fall at harvest we organize the olive oil week or day: lectures where we take you from olive picking in the morning, to the processing stage in the afternoon to the kitchen for a cooking class.
We have a beautiful country side, in the middle of Tuscany. Here you can have beautiful walks. Our guests can also use the 5 mountainbikes available. We have a hunting reserve in winter and in spring and summer there is a clay pigeon shooting range which operates on Saturdays and Sundays. We produce our own vegetables and our guests can benefit.
Il Villino Rosso is located next to the Villa of Monti. This impressive renaissance Villa was built in the middle of the XVI century as a hunting stay for sportsmen and city politicians. Today the owners live there and will be glad to provide local information. The nearest village is Ghizzano (6 km),an ancient hamlet of 350 souls, there you can find a very good bakery, a general grocery, which has a stock of delicious local foods and a wide variety of all other everyday needs and a post office. Shops, banks, supermarkets and so on are available in Forcoli or Peccioli (12 km). The villa is located between four of the main art cities of Tuscany (Florence, which is only 45minutes by train, Pisa, Lucca, Siena). You are also near to historical small towns and villages like S.Gimignano, San Miniato and Volterra.
